{"product_id":"aberrant-cell-biology-in-cystic-joseph-fazio-9783639166460","title":"Aberrant Cell Biology in Cystic Fibrosis Cells","description":"This book describes a novel cell biological basis contributing to aberrant innate immunity and inflammation in the cystic fibrosis (CF) respiratory tract. The first aspect covered involves the basis for previously described hyperacidification of organelles in CF cells, and how this phenomenon can be pharmacologically corrected. The second aspect focuses on the excessive production of a molecule named Sialyl-Lewis X (Slx) in CF cells. Slx acts as a receptor for neutrophils which cause excessive damage in the CF bronchial epithelia. The third aspect involves the discovery of attenuated polymeric IgA transcytosis in CF cells, which may contribute to excessive colonization of P. aeruginosa. Future directions addressing these aspects of the cell biology of CF are outlined.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph Fazio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639166469\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639166460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/11\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Joseph Fazio","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113843273983,"sku":"9783639166460","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4b80470c-3987-4e3a-bed5-0f38924728d5.jpg?v=1769617529","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/aberrant-cell-biology-in-cystic-joseph-fazio-9783639166460","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
